Speed with an attitude seems to be the theme!
Yup! At least there seems to be some kind of plan.
I can’t keep track anymore. Do they have another pick in the third round?

Asamoah I really like. I think he's better than at OU. Our coaching staff did him, and the entire defensive side of the ball, no favors imo. He, Bonnito, and Winfrey are all NFL players.
I am surprised though that he went before Dean. Does everyone just think it was that amazing Dline that did everything for him? I know they're good players. Dean is gonna have a massive chip on his shoulder that is tough to replicate.

Not unless we move back in. 17th pick in 4th round (#122) is currently next pick we have.

They just said something on NFL Network that Dean has an injury but didn’t want surgery and that has teams concerned.

Brian Asamoah:
Offtopic, but does anyone know why I only see some Avatars, mine is also missing but is set in my control panel...

Thanks for that. It kind of explains it.

Guess our new GM found Slick Rick's "how to trade down and acquire more picks" notepad when he showed up.

About our presenters, I liked the Ed Marinaro speech before the pick although it was long he took a jab at the pack and he went to Cornell in Ithaca.
I caught the draft pick announcer from Minnesota, wrestler Gable Steveson, we have a thread about him here and it probably needs to be updated, he won another ncaa championship! viewtopic.php?t=38229

I have such appreciation for real wrestlers. It takes so much skill and conditioning. Steveson is one of the best athletes on the planet.

Malik Willis finally picked at 3-22 by Tennessee I think.

That's correct. Wonder why a guy that was a projected first round pick(even as high as 2) drops to the 3rd round?
